Running
2003-06-19 - 1:07 p.m.
I ran with wide-swinging legs and knocking knees. I bruised the insides of those knees sometimes when I ran. I pumped my arms like the obnoxious Phys Ed teacher showed me. He became my sworn enemy. I stretched my long, fragile legs as far as I could and nearly kicked my heels into my rear at the end of each curving arc of a stride. I ran until I was winded and my hair frazzled its way out of my pigtails. I ran until my heart pounded and my gums were sore.
I still finished at the back of the class, who were all made to wait, whining and impatient, until I finally hit the finish line.�
Pretend it's 10th grade. Leave me a note.
